Citation needed. Not a microbenchmark, or a single example of some software. Actual sustained mixed workload usage of real life applications. Especially realtime-sensitive stuff like DAWs (where you have the added risk that calling into the JIT in the middle of a realtime thread can completely screw you over; keeping realtime-safe code realtime-safe under dynamic or even static binary translation is a whole extra can of worms).
- valuearb 6y agoSustained benchmarks await production hardware. But it will be surprising if Rosetta2 translated apps run slower. Not only will system calls be native, but common operations like retain/release are 2x faster under Rosetta3. https://mobile.twitter.com/hhariri/status/1326788546502463494 https://mobile.twitter.com/hhariri/status/132678854650246349...
- marcan_42 6y agoThat's a microbenchmark. There are a myriad reasons why one specific thing might be faster under a new CPU even under emulation. That doesn't mean other things won't be much slower.
